Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box Review

[mahad117579]

i know why they put replay on the puzzles so your friends can play them to

ever thougt about that ign

[cornpickle1998]

is flora there?

[rokuterra]

@cornpickle1998 Yes, you run into her later on in the game.

[kabuto444]

This is a genious game and want more proff.layton movies!

[triforcelinkz]

I actually kinda disagree... I find it to have a pretty nice replay value, especially if one has not touched the game in like months or years... i find that the great storyline draws me back. I agree that the story will never be as suspenseful as a phoenix wright game, but it is a heart-warming experience to play from start to end

[bluepinixy]

i hav the lost future (european name)

or its also called unwound future! (diff name from a diff country)

[YoSoyEdo]

@bluepinixy The Lost/Unwound (US name) Future is the third and final game in the chronological story of Professor Layton. This one is the second.

[jimmyelgringito]

@YoSoyEdo What about the last specter?

[YoSoyEdo]

@jimmyelgringito If Last Specter is the one that's coming out, then that's the first game. They're starting a prequel trilogy.

[jimmyelgringito]

@YoSoyEdo I'm buying all the games. I just got curious village (for $5 in sears) and i bought the one that they go to the future today. Professor Layton is a surprisingly amazing series :D

[YoSoyEdo]

@jimmyelgringito IKR!? I personally would find it funny if the Professor made it into SSB

[jimmyelgringito]

@YoSoyEdo yeah that would be cool. Hey, which game comes out first= Last specter or Mask of Miracle?

[YoSoyEdo]

@jimmyelgringito Last Specter is 4, I believe, and Mask of Miracle is fifth.

[jimmyelgringito]

@YoSoyEdo awesome

[NintendoOwnsSony]

This game deserves at least 9.6

I find it so astonishingly mysterious, fun to play and to enjoy. In a few words: this is one ingenious piece of art.

[TheGuacTaco]

would it be better to play 1 or 2 first?

[DimitrisP99]

@TheGuacTaco both

[YoSoyEdo]

@TheGuacTaco Play 1 first, but get 2 (and 3) on the same day. That way, if you finish 1, you'll be able to enjoy 2 then 3, as well!

[LlamasEatStuff]

1:38

Anyone else notice the Triforce?

[rotz001]

@LlamasEatStuff

ZOMG

[triforcelinkz]

@LlamasEatStuff I realized the triforce in diabolical box... so awesome

[3qnLnoh]

Hey gamers. you guys want to play a little game? Do you like solving puzzles? Like those in Assassin's creed or the early resident evil games? Here is the challenge. I have set up my account so that the smart ones can solve the password to my channel. It may look difficult, but the logic behind it is very simple.

[1NiceOne1]

Fuck these youtube adds, most annoying pieces of shit, google has ruined youtube.

[Matterisgood]

i dun lik dis geam cuz it gizes meh someting tha i dun like n tink dey shuld doo bettur efen tho most other geams dun hav et

[XxMaplerzxX]

he didnt mention how good the soundtrack was......

[Hyrulean112]

Does anyone know if there's a possibilty to set Japanese voices in this game? I want to buy it and I just wonder if there's any chance. If this is possible - are they subbed (just in case I didn't understand some things)? I know that I can buy the Japanese version but I am not so fluent with kanji yet. I just love Japanese voices. So how is it with the voices?

[LexLight1]

@Hyrulean112 No, there's no posibility. :(

[doodusuck244]

UNWOUND FUTURE HERE I COME!

[eddypikachu]

i cant wait until the unwound future

[pokesnorlax1]

I never got this one, but the original was one of my favorite games until I played it to all my head could do.

[professorlayton13579]

i think that it deserves more than 8.5!!! it should get 100000000000000000000000000000­000000000000000000000000000000­0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dragoniguana]

I didn't like Folsense nearly as much as the Molentary or Dropstone. And did anyone else totally see it coming when it turns out Paolo was disguised as Flora?

[HarvestMoonFan1997]

i know i definitely could tell that wasnt the real flora.

[azz578]

Hmm....interesting...they probably didnt think Americans would know what a "Pandoras Box" is.

[mobyguy77]

Here In The UK, Its Called Pandora's Box, Awesome Game, 10/10

[eXpertdrumming]

should I get the diabolical box or the curious village? please state your opinion!

[somerandomkrn]

@eXpertdrumming

I would get diabolical box. both have excellent stories, but diabolical box just has more features to go with.

[iemanowl]

@eXpertdrumming Get the curious village first! then the diabolical boxs. You will understand some inside jokes

[dragoniguana]

@iemanowl Oh, yeah, like when Luke tries to pull off Chelmy's face. That was hilarious.

[UltraDramaQueen]

Ah, just get both :D I'm saving up for Diabolical box right now :3 Curious Villiage was great too though, so I'd still say get both :D But one thing we know from Curious Village, is that Farris Wheel's are evil, and they will try to kill you XD

[freshfishbowl]

@eXpertdrumming Diabolical Box, only because it gave them time to improve, there are some similar puzzles to the Curious villiage so you don't miss out

[hilack5]

@eXpertdrumming

GET THE CURIUS VILLAGE

ONE OF THE CHARACTERS IN THE BEGGINING OF THE DIABOLICAL BOX will ruin the ending of the curius village...

[llllOrionllll]

have u guys noticed that lukes voice is different in the uk and us version

[SexxyAmberii]

hm i really don't know why it's so hard to find some cool guys on you tube!

[Kebabbish]

they're making SIX? omg brilliant! i LOVE the layton games, the graphics are so stunning and the characters are so funny... :D

[Ratchethacker2]

what do you mean that graphics are stunning?

are u a fucking idiot?

[Kebabbish]

i don't know how i offended u quite that much, Ratchethacker2, but just to clarify: what i meant by 'stunning graphics' (perhaps it was incorrect to use the word 'graphics' but i'm sorry i'm not a computery person or watevs) was that i loved the beautiful cartoon drawings. :) happy?

[arakami]

Damn, you're the idiot.

What he meant by graphics were the visuals. But graphics works too. Get your fucking facts right and go flame somewhere else. And yeah Kebabbish, the visuals are stunning and that's another one of the factors that sucks you right into the game. :)

[VmKid]

it's called Pandora's box in the UK version. In the US version it's the Diabolical Box

[dallases]

At first I thought they used all the puzzles possible in the curious village... then they tell me they're making 6 GAMES?!!! AMAZING!!!

[PenCil5893]

i thought it was called pandora's box unless this is the us version

[Rayman4321]

Level - 5 is making series of Layton!! :D

And i already loved the storyline and puzzles in these two...

[king638]

they making 6 gamers altogether

[elenafreudenberg]

i've finished the game :D

[mayskee]

I couldn't get past Puzzle #4 :/

[Gibb9494]

LMFAO your gay

[TaienQuinn]

As a Brit I'm just curious do any of the Americans feel insulted that the name of this game was changed from Pandora's box to the Diabolical box because Nintendo don't believe that many Americans will know what pandora's box is. In Europe it's still gonna be called pandora's box.

[fullmetalchymist]

Wow. I didn't know that. It's just like how they changed the name of the first Harry Potter book because they figure us 'Murricans would be too dumb to know what a "Philosopher's Stone" is.

Damn it.

[williamtom0]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA i never knew americans didnt get the real title, now im lolling my head off

[VmKid]

Yup. Although レイトン教授と悪魔の箱 would be kind of hard to pronounce to those who can't read Japanese. Actually, neither Americans, Europeans, or Australians got the real title. The Japanese title translates to "Devil's Box". Last time I checked, Pandora isn't a name for the Devil. However, Pandora's Box was supposedly filled with evil, so the name "Diabolical Box" could mean the same thing, with Diabolical meaning "evil" or "mean". So Nobody except the Japanese got the real title.

[robotperson1]

@VmKid Yep, but according to mythogy its supposed to be pandoas box si wouldnt call devil the real title but the original title.

[TheUniverseExists]

@VmKid all i got from that was reiton (Layton).

[johnlovesbridge]

@VmKid Diabolical's root word is diablo, meaning DEVIL. So we actually did get the original title in a roundabout way, and more aesthetically pleasing than devil's box.

[Darakanserith]

Are you sure about it? I was in the local gameshop the other day when an ad for the game started playing, I'm sure it said "Diabolical Box"

[TaienQuinn]

yeah I preordered it and I've just been playing it for the last few hours - it's called Pandora's box

[Deathstrom1850]

I'm american and I'm usually shocked at the stupidity of my people.

[SwizzelSticks91]

I don't feel insulted.. Diabolical Box is actually closer to the meaning of the original Japanese title, Akuma no Hako which means Devil's Box.

Pandora's box would be Pandora no Hako.

So I think it's less about Americans not knowing about Pandora's box and more about translating the title more closely to the original.

(Though TBH, I don't see why it's called Pandora's box since the boxes seem to be only slightly similar. But I'm just going by what I've seen in the trailers.)

[GavinMonoxide]

Little replay value? I played though the first game twice!

[Shaqstheman000]

I think Pandora's box sounds a bit better than Diabolical Box...

Can't wait for it. Just 8 days :D

[RetroJoystick]

should i get this or the curious village? which is more fun

[MUFC1412]

its good but wish it was on psp somehow

[UnderAvg]

I wish they didn't get rid of the "logic/trick puzzles"

[ResistanceForever]

will rent, beat in 10 hours, return it, and never think about it again. gamefly for the mf win

[GamepadJuggalo]

I'm gonna download it, beat it, delete it.

Torrents+Flash card for the mothafuckin win

[Armyman215]

lol @ using torrents to dl ds roms

[GamepadJuggalo]

lol @ you

[nintendofreak505]

how do you download it and play it on your computer?

[GamepadJuggalo]

I don't play it on my computer. I download it, put it on my flash cart and play it on my ds

[javakat343]

And let me guess, you didn't pay...*eye roll*

PL

[GamepadJuggalo]

no shit.

Why would I pay for a game when i can get it for free?

[javakat343]

Because people WORK to make the games, its their JOB. If you have one of those, then pay for it.

[GamepadJuggalo]

hahahaha fuck that.

I download Xbox, Wii, ps1-2, psp nintendo ds games and all the older console games for free.

[javakat343]

Well according to the people who live by the certain moral standards of society, you're an inconsiderate and selfish person to not care....

I'm sorry I can't change your mind.

[GamepadJuggalo]

Well according to me, You're right!

And going by common sense, you're a dumbass for paying for something like video games instead of easily downloading it for FREE

[javakat343]

No, common sense dictates that you don't need to swear at someone to have a convincing argument, and that you work/pay for what you earn, reap what you sow...

[GamepadJuggalo]

Whatever.

Downloading games>Paying for games

[Gibb9494]

If noone bought the games they wouldnt make money, and games wouldnt be made anymore, only jewish people and poor familys steal there games online

[spierfan100]

wow just wow

[scuttassassin]

gamepad if everyone was as smart as you and downloaded all the games they play than develepers wouldent make any money so who is going to make your games

[GamepadJuggalo]

I don't care.

I have 2500+ games DOWNLOADED.

Including NES, SNES, N64,Ps1,PSP,Wii,Xbox,atari 2600 and Genesis.

I think I can last until I grow out of games

[Gibb9494]

LMFAO Wow dude nevermind, a fat piece of shit with a fugly mustache like that must have a pretty shitty life, you earned your right to steal games, lmfao

[GamepadJuggalo]

lol whatever nigger.

[VmKid]

the only way you can legally download a game is if you have already bought it.

[deathtrpBRO]

there may be little replay value, but if this game has as many puzzles as the curious village, im sold :-D

[14coldplay]

it's got over 150 so you're set ;)

[ComeOnGaming]

[Thomastheod]

[posie1200]

[pivotkid11]

[posie1200]

Lucky! I can't wait to get it on my R4! I already finished the first one...

[mightyhand]

[ExplosiveBoring]

Why do I keep hearing beast as a verb?

[GamepadJuggalo]

Im bout to beast these puzzles.

This game is a beast.

[Yunamy90]

[superdeeduper51]

Please get off the internet. You're a pimple on society's ass and need to be exterminated before you spread offspring.

[Schaurfshutze]

Why does this looks gay? and why do you want to shoot niggers online in THIS game?

[MAHNAYMAARON]

wtf is up with these stupid ads

[greatgames148]

[airsoftpyro]

[thelegendofbob]

[kaiserzero61]

[rohgenextfan]

"Some of the puzzles have multi choice solutions so when you've already learned the answer, there's no need to ever play them again." The same can be said of all games though.

[Zepthire]

i think wat the guy meens is u are given say 4 choices from the start and u have to work out which one is right, but if u were to play it again all u would do is click the awnser straight away

[JordenSpax5]

Soundtrack Ftw.

[Justinpfx]

You can thank Tobin from NoobToob for getting this game released :s
